Steven Seagal: Lawman

[1bad65]

Most of this is just conjecture and personal opinion. No basis for it. And what real man has not been married for more then a few years has not intertained the thought of whipping his wife's a$$ now and then? And the nanny thing. It all depends on what she looks like. Or looked like at the time.

I don't see anything here that has not been done by just about everyone in the movie business. What makes him any worse? And besides that, can you whip him?

Actually it's all true. His marriage to Kelly LeBrock was annulled because he had not divorced his first wife when he married her. So he committed polygamy. He had a kid with his nanny, so we know he slept with her. And hitting a woman is classless, not a joke.

And even if everyone else does it (which is ridiculous to say), why is he some Lama? Would a legit religion look at someone who did those things as someone to look up to, to emulate? Get real.

As to me whipping him, I'd bet on myself. I didn't have to marry my way to my rank, I earned it.

I could whip him in a foot race easy!

7 Ways to Save "Steven Seagal Lawman"
By Matt Coker, Thursday, Apr. 15 2010 @ 8:47AM

​As close readers know, Clockwork is a huuuuuuuge fan of Steven Seagal Lawman. Sadly, the A&E reality series has shut down due to silly allegations of sexual harassment, illegal trafficking of females for sex, failure to prevent sexual harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination in violation of public policy, and false representations about employment lodged against the actor/lawman.

First, can you imagine how much better the show would have been if all those things had happened in front of the cameras? Personal assistant Kayden Nguyen alleges Steven Seagal had two Russian hookers at the ready to fulfill his sex needs. Russian hookers = ratings gold. They spent an entire Lawman last season debating whether to kill rats, fer chrissakes.

B) No doubt rejoicing are the thugs, petty criminals and assorted scum of Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, where Steven Seagal served as deputy chief of the reserve deputies. (Don't go telling me that was a title made up for the reality show; Steven Seagal was the only member of the force always shown in a flak jacket with "Sheriff" emblazoned across the chest.)

Well, good citizens of Jefferson Parish, rejoice. Clockwork presents seven ways to save Steven Seagal Lawman.

* Weave in a plot line about how Steven Seagal was performing an undercover sex trafficking investigation. Why hadn't Steven Seagal told anyone Steven Seagal was performing an undercover sex trafficking investigation? Because he's Steven Seagal! Steven Seagal doesn't follow the suits' "rules."


* Point out that the two Russian hookers were actually Sgt. Larry Dyess and Captain Alex Norman in drag.


* Blame it all on PTKSD (Post Traumatic Katrina Stress Disorder).


* Explain Steven Seagal did not reach Steven Seagal's ham hands up the skirt, try to touch the breasts and stick his ham hands down the pants of Nguyen on her first night just for jollies. Steven Seagal was teaching the 23-year-old the proper way to pat down a perp.


* As for repeating the unscheduled pat down the next day, state that Steven Seagal was again giving a lesson. As Steven Seagal's sensei taught Steven Seagal: repetition, repetition, repetition!


* Let Fortunato take the fall. Works every time!


* Change the name of the series to Steven Seagal Lawman? Not So Much.

Guilty plea in Seagal reality-show arrest

GRETNA — A 30-year-old Marrero man who last year challenged his cocaine possession arrest during filming of the A&E network series “Steven Seagal: Lawman” has pleaded guilty in state court.

Jimmy Sarrio admitted Friday that he had a small amount of cocaine when arrested July 26, 2009. He was sentenced to two years probation.

Sarrio waged a pretrial battle to have evidence in the case tossed on grounds that Seagal, a reserve deputy chief with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office, and other deputies lacked legal grounds to question him while he was parked on a friend’s lawn.

Sarrio says he was minding his business when Seagal and the deputies ordered him out of the car.

Seagal testified in June that deputies thought Sarrio might be in need of help.

Anyone see that episode?

Better than being canceled, I suppose.

Actor Steven Seagal resigns his JPSO reserve-deputy post
Published: Friday, October 01, 2010, 5:01 PM Updated: Friday, October 01, 2010, 5:27 PM

But fans of the show should get all of it they can while they can: Seagal, whom Harry Lee invited to join the JPSO as a reserve deputy more than two decades ago, has resigned from the force.

“He tendered his resignation about three and a half weeks ago maybe,” Sheriff Newell Normand said Friday (October 1). “I did not actually have any conversations with him. The production company had asked of me whether or not we were going to continue filming the show. I had indicated that we would not. Shortly thereafter I received his resignation.”

Kayden Nguyen filed a $1 million sexual harassment lawsuit against Seagal in April claiming that the actor attempted to keep Nguyen, who had applied in Los Angeles for a job as his personal assistant, as a “sex toy” in a Lafitte house during filming of the upcoming episodes.

The suit was dismissed in July, but Normand suspended production on the series at the time of its filing.

“We had this unfortunate incident, a situation I guess they ultimately reached some compromise on,” Normand said of the suit. “That’s, I guess, fine for him, but internally it would’ve required an internal investigation on that matter. We were going to proceed further once that matter was resolved and it was clear that she did not want to proceed criminally. We had reached out to Nguyen on several occasions to try and get her to come in, to no avail. Then we would have, because of the seriousness of the allegations, had an internal investigation.

“I don’t have any ill will toward him, and I don’t think they (Seagal, A&E and production entities Granada America and Steamroller Films) have any toward the JPSO.

“I think he just made a decision to move on.”

A&E promoted the first episodes of the series by distributing infant-sized flak jackets to TV critics. The show's Dec. 2, 2009 debut was the network's most-watched series premiere ever, drawing 3.5 million domestic viewers.

The series aired globally, and Normand noted the "overwhelmingly positive" feedback he received from far-flung law-enforcement colleagues.

A second season of 16 episodes was ordered in February 2010.

According to A&E, which through a publicity spokesman declined comment on news of Seagal's resignation from the JPSO, the concluding run of "Lawman" covers eight episodes.

Steven Seagal returns to his martial arts roots as he trains with lethal Japanese samurai swords in his reality TV show.

Steven Seagal: Lawman follows the action star in his low-key life as a reserve deputy with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office in Louisiana.

But in the start of his new season he went back to what he is best known for - insisting that 'the ancient philosophy of swordsmanship' is what he relies on for his police work.

'Swordsmanship is a philosophy, a way of life, where you learn to not only protect yourself but all innocent people,' he said sagely. 'When you're a cop all of those techniques and all of those philosophies come into play.'

He added: 'The sword symbolises the should of any great warrior. The real weapon is the swordsman - the mind behind the sword is the real weapon. The sword and the philosophy is applicable today. It's something I believe is my path. Perfecting the art of war in order to stop war.'

Steven Seagal going back on patrol! A&E's 'Lawman' to resume production in Phoenix -- EXCLUSIVE
by James Hibberd


Steven Seagal is getting his badge back.

Production on his COPS-style A&E reality show Lawman may have been shut down last year when the actor was accused of illicit behavior, but now Deputy Seagal has now landed a new beat: Phoenix, Ariz., where controversial Sheriff Joe Arpaio has welcomed the actor to resume shooting. As a result, A&E has greenlit a third season of Steven Seagal Lawman, with Seagal going on patrol in Maricopa County.

“I have a lot of friends in the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, so when Sheriff Joe Arpaio invited me to join them, there wasn’t a moment’s hesitation,” Seagal said. “Certain crimes in Arizona are on the rise and now that I live there, I want to help the sheriff fight it the best way I know how. It’s an honor to serve.”

Hear that bad guys? Crime is on the rise, but Steven Seagal is coming to town.

“Mr. Seagal has been on this horse before, so to speak, and will be an asset to this fine organization,” says Arpaio. “We look forward to working with him. We’re a little unusual here, which should make things pretty interesting.”

The first two seasons of Lawman were shot in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, where Seagal was embedded with local sheriffs departments. Last year, Seagal learned nobody is above the law when he was accused of sex trafficking by a personal assistant. The lawsuit was dropped, but the tabloid headlines prompted Louisiana authorities to shut down production on the show.

But now, like something from a wild buddy cop movie, Seagal and the always colorful Arpaio will join forces. Arpaio promotes himself as “America’s Toughest Sheriff” and is an outspoken proponent against illegal immigration. He’s also been the subject of FBI and Department of Justice investigations for civil rights violations and abuse of power. Seagal will execute outstanding arrest warrants, respond to emergency situations, work with the narcotics unit, and more. The teaming should make for very interesting viewing.

Steven Seagal Lawman premiered in December 2009 to 3.5 million total viewers, making it one of the most-watched original series launches in A&E’s history.

Seagal is at it again.

I guess not everyone is a fan.

Steven Seagal is being threatened with a lawsuit over his part in a police raid that was taped for his A&E reality show, TMZ reported.

The actor, who has served as a reserve deputy sheriff since the mid-'80s, was part of a team that arrived at Jesus Sanchez Llovera's Arizona house in March with a tank and armed in full riot gear, Llovera alleges in his legal documents.

Llovera claims that the raid, carried out by the Maricopa County Sheriff's Department, was "unfounded" because they believed Llovera was raising roosters for illegal ****fighting. But he says the roosters are only "for show."

Llovera -- who served both Seagal and Sheriff Joe Arpaio with an official notice of claim, the first step toward a lawsuit -- says his 11-month-old puppy was shot and killed during the raid and that police also killed more than 100 of his roosters.

Additionally, he says the police rammed the tank into a gate on his property and that his home suffered "substantial damage."

Llovera is seeking $100,000 in damages and wants a "formal written apology" from Seagal to his children for the death of their puppy, "a beloved family pet."

According to TMZ, the entire incident was recorded for Seagal's reality show, Steven Seagal Lawman.

A&E declined comment when contacted by The Hollywood Reporter. Seagal and the Maricopa County authorities have yet to comment.

Jesus Llovera’s

what a name...

The puppy had it coming! It just says Seagal was there doesn't say he drove the tank or shot any animals. A nice smear campaign nonetheless.
